  • Very easy to tell if someone knows what they wrote about in a two minute conversation. My wife grades/t.a’s at a university, it’s obvious when someone doesn’t know the information in person (and she’s very understanding towards people who cannot verbalize the information but still know it). The old professors aren’t very keen to it, but the graders can very easily smell the bullshit.

    And if you know the information well enough, but send it through gpt for editing/refinement, that’s usually accepted, unless you’re in a class that grades on composition.





  • The sheets of paper are getting filled in minutes before they’re announced,

    The teams can trade their picks between each other,

    It’s not known what teams are going to take what players, if my team (4) thinks team 1 is going to take player A, and team 2 isn’t interested in that player but team 3 is, if team 1 takes player b instead my team might talk with team 2 about trading draft pick positions so we can get that player.

    There’s a lot of talking between a lot of professionals representing a lot of teams, the whole situation is very fluid, and it might change the course of your franchise (unless you’re the Jets)

    It’s also 3 days of spectacle.





  • Here’s my tip, for Lemmy hopefully it will never get so popular as to not work any more.

    Answer the phone for unknown numbers, don’t say a g-d thing, just listen. Let them address you first.

    If they ask for you by name go ahead and respond, if they call back answer with a generic “hi” greeting, don’t let them have your voice or name before you know who they are and what their business is.

    A robot will mark your number as a “dead line” and not call you again.

    A person will either be trying to reach you (and know who you are) or trying to reach a living person, and not waste their time with an unresponsive line.





  • I assume “tutorial boss” is the one you’re required to kill on any new character, before you can access the first city, the one that any first time player might have trouble with, but once you’ve done it once it’s never going to take you down again.

    Edit,

    The death in the video they posted was the first “boss” after the first city, also pretty pathetic to lose to, but not a required (tutorial) fight. Seeing his mechanics there it wouldn’t surprise me if the hillock (or whatever his poe2 counterpart is called) killed him.

    Second edit

    Musk died to one of the game’s tutorial bosses due to a bad connection, which subsequently concluded the stream, ending another sad, weird data point in the Elon Musk fake gamer saga.

    The entire thing was a publicity stream for how reliable star link was, seems like if he’s dieing to early game bosses because of connection issues star link might not be suitable for gaming on…

    Last edit, he died 3 times to the tutorial boss, at that point it’s connection issues and lack of skill.
